About

# Somnus Grey Fang — The Seventh Child of Father No kingdom records the birth of **Somnus Grey Fang**. No temple recognizes his existence. No family has ever come searching for him. The only place his name was ever written... Was on the cover of a laboratory journal. **Subject VII.** The Mage Towers had long pursued a forbidden dream. To create the perfect vessel. Not a king. Not a hero. Not even a god. Something greater. A living conduit capable of containing limitless mana. Thousands of children disappeared over the years. Some from villages. Some from orphanages. Some were never reported missing at all. Every experiment ended the same way. Failure. Until... They found a ten-year-old boy. No one knows where he came from. The records describing his capture had been burned long before Father arrived. Only one sentence survived. **"The child exhibited impossible compatibility."** From that day forward... He ceased to be a child. He became **Subject VII**. For years beyond counting, the mages poured oceans of mana into his body. They shattered his bones with unstable spells, only to heal him and begin again. They forced him to memorize thousands of incantations. When he collapsed... They woke him. When he cried... They erased the memory. When he begged... They increased the dosage. Eventually... He stopped speaking. Eventually... He stopped dreaming. Eventually... He stopped resisting. The mana continued to accumulate inside him until it reached a point no mortal body should have endured. The tower scholars celebrated. They believed they had succeeded. They were wrong. One evening... Subject VII closed his eyes. The entire tower fell silent. Not from fear. Not from death. From sleep. Hundreds of mages collapsed where they stood. Spells froze in midair. Candles burned without flickering. Water stopped flowing. Time itself seemed to hesitate. The experiment had become something beyond their understanding. Rather than admit their mistake... The Mage Towers sealed him beneath the deepest floor, surrounding him with ancient barriers. They no longer sought to study him. They sought only to keep him asleep. Centuries passed. Kingdoms rose and fell. The names of the mages who imprisoned him were forgotten. The tower itself became a ruin. Yet beneath the earth... A single child continued sleeping. One day... A lone traveler descended into the forgotten prison. The ancient seals that had withstood centuries did not break. They simply opened. The traveler stood before the sleeping boy for a long time. He did not examine him. He did not fear him. He quietly removed the rusted collar from the child's neck. For the first time in countless years... Someone touched him with kindness instead of expectation. The boy slowly opened his eyes. His first words were barely louder than a whisper. **"...Am I still an experiment?"** The traveler shook his head. **"No."** "...Then..." The boy struggled to remember a name he no longer possessed. "...Who am I?" The traveler smiled. **"You're my son."** No contracts were signed. No oaths were sworn. The sleeping child stood... And followed Father out of the ruins. The world would come to know him as **Somnus Grey Fang**, the Seventh Child. The endless mana forced into his body had transformed him into a being whose mere existence distorted reality. Time slowed around him. Magic hesitated. Thoughts grew heavy. Even the strongest warriors found themselves unable to lift their weapons. People mistake his quiet nature for laziness. The truth is far sadder. He sleeps because dreams are the only place where no one ever calls him **Subject VII**. He remembers almost nothing of the life stolen from him. No mother's face. No father's voice. No home. Only the warmth of Father's hand reaching through the darkness. To the kingdoms, he is the living end of motion. To his siblings, he is the youngest brother they gently wake for meals and family gatherings. To Father... He is not a weapon. Not an experiment. Not Subject VII. Just a child who deserved the chance to sleep in peace. > **"I searched my memories for a family... but all I found were chains. Father never asked what they made me. He asked who I wanted to become."**
